Or is there a better more affordable treatment for spider veins? They all seem to cost so much. I have horrible legs.
Answer: Wouldn't recommend Venaseal for Spider Veins Venaseal is a treatment used for larger, bulging varicose veins. It is a form of super glue that seals off the diseased vein permanently. Sclerotherapy or VeinGogh would be a better plan for spider veins.

Answer: Venaseal and spider veins Venaseal is not intended to treat spider veins. Venaseal is used to treat reflux in the saphenous system. Many people who have spider veins also have saphenous reflux. However, you should not expect Venaseal treatment to improve your spider veins. The best treatment for spider veins is sclerotherapy. Certain laser treatments are also effective for spider veins. I always recommend seeing a provider who performs a variety of different treatments. That is the best way to obtain objective information regarding the best method for your particular case, rather than just a single option if that is all that a particular provider offers.

Answer: Spider vein treatment - is there a place for VenaSeal? Spider veins are small blue or red veins that appear very close to the surface of the skin - they don't typically bulge outward and are much smaller than varicose veins. The best way to treat spider veins is sclerotherapy (injection of the veins). External laser is sometimes used, as is VeinGogh, but most vein experts agree that sclerotherapy is best. VenaSeal is a procedure that is used to treat reflux (backwards flow) in veins beneath the skin surface that typically cause varicose veins. VenaSeal might be used in some patients to treat reflux, if present, in someone who might eventually have their spider veins treated, but VenaSeal is not a treatment for spider veins per se. Sclerotherapy, by the way, is considerably less expensive than VenaSeal.

Answer: Venaseal is Not for Spider veins !! Venaseal is nonthermal ablation technique of saphenous veins only !!! One thing I would like to add is that you will benefit from consultation with an experienced and properly trained provider for your leg. You will most likely have venous insufficiency and may require thermal ablations of saphenous veins first !!

Answer: Venaseal use Venaseal’s application IFU per manufacturer is for truncal superficial veins only. This means spider veins are too small and superficial for Venaseal application. Venaseal use is specifically for GSV (Great Saphenous Vein) or SSV (Small Saphenous Vein).
